Things that I find gross and sexist about marriage
- When the dude asks team brides father for her hand in marriage
- When the father gives the bride away
- When the bride is supposed to take the husband’s last name
Also a bonus points for things I find gross and sexist about proposals
- When a guy tries to pressure his partner into saying yes by proposing very publicly and then she is vilified and he receives sympathy if she says no

“call
your
grandmother.
mother.
a
bitch.
hoe.
slut.
dumb cunt. in that order.
to
her face.
watch her spirit leave her body.
watch her fall into herself.
take pride in your aim. your precision.
stay.
grab a plate.
eat what remains of her.
that is what you do
to
women
who are not yours everyday.” —i am speaking to men and women, nayyirah waheed (via nayyirahwaheed)

mmm smashing the patriarchy
tw: domestic abuse
nigella lawson was attacked by her husband in broad daylight, in a packed restaurant, and instead of helping her, the paparazzi took a series of photos, and printed them in their fucking tabloids. and today, people are making fucking jokes about her being choked, or defending her shithead husband.
i love you Nigella :(
